The blackbird in question lives on Front Street between California and Sacramento streets. It has been terrorizing people for a couple weeks by swooping down and attacking heads of people who just happen to be walking down the street.

The bird has gained international attention and is actually attracting crowds in the area as people gather to watch unsuspecting people get attacked in the back of the head. While those on the bad end of the bird's beak scream out, most observers find it quite comical.
